NYC is an epicenter of culture, where cuisines from all around the world are represented. I’m here to find (and eat) it all, while showing others what’s out there, and where to get it! Maybe we can’t all afford to jump on a plane, but there’s so much to learn and experience right here, on any budget!

Poke Bowls… gotta eat ‘em all! 🎶 I’ve been dying to try @miyagiramenbar in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, and 10/10 definitely going back as soon as I have the chance. We ordered a lot more than this lol but here’s what’s in the photo: 🍣 Tuna Poke Bowl • Tuna sashimi with poke sauce, avocado, seaweed salad, masago, edamame, seasoning & sesame seeds over mixed greens 🍜 Bulgogi Ramen • Shoyu base, thin marinated ribeye, kimchi, scallion salad & sesame seeds 🌶️ Side of Kimchi because you can never have enough I stole a tuna cube from my friends plate (super stealth like… now you know @whimsylyn 😈) and it had a really nice flavor, quality and texture. I can’t really speak more to the dish than that myself, but my friend definitely seemed to enjoy her food! I ordered the Bulgogi Ramen, and it was pretty solid. The meat was perfectly tender and very well marinated with a touch of sweetness, and the soup base had a very mild kick and some nice acidity from the kimchi, while still maintaining the richness and umami quality of a standard Shoyu base. Cant wait to go back and eat more things! 🤤 📍 Rehoboth Beach, Delaware . . . #rehobothbeach #rehobothbeachde #rehobothbeachlife #rehobothfoodie #rehobotheats #delawarefood #delawareeats #delawarefoodie #delawarefoodies #bulgogiramen #tunapoke #pokesalad #totallyforked

I heard @smashmouthburgers was going to be in Dover and I couldn’t resist! 🍔 I don’t normally like picking favorites, but these are definitely my favorite burgers in Delaware. Totally preference, I’m not saying there aren’t other terrific burger places throughout the state, but I strongly prefer smashed burgers and there’s are done right - super thin, really crispy at the edges, and great quality beef. Not to mention really good buns / bread, sauces and toppings. Here’s what we ordered: 🥪 Smash Patty Burger • Smashed double patties, caramelized onions, pickles, American cheese, and smash sauce on some beautifully thick griddle rye bread. 🍔 Santa Fe Burger • Smashed double patties, shredded lettuce, pico, avocado, chipotle mayo, and green chile queso. They’ll be back in Dover on Wednesday at the Delaware State Police Museum from 11 am - 2 pm. I don’t know how frequently they’re here so get on that! (Also to the awesome peeps in the truck thank youuu 🙏) 📍 Dover, Delaware . . . #doverde #doverdelaware #bestburger #smashburgers #smashedburger #delawareburger #delawarerestaurants #delawareeats #delawarefood #delawarefoodie #delawarefoodies #totallyforked

This coffee flight is a first class experience, so hop on and let’s soar ✈️ And when I say let’s soar I’m not f*cking around because this caffeine high lasted me like 9 hours 😂😅 I mean I also started off with a LOVELY Lavendar Latte before I noticed they had a flight, but once I saw it I couldn’t resist. The Coffee Flight: 🐝 Worker Bee • Honey Cinnamon 🫐 Blueberry Pancakes • Blueberry & Maple 🍫 Nutella Latte • Mocha & Hazelnut 🫖 Chai Latte I was so excited when I learned @cornergroundscafe joined the Odessa locale because great cafes are sorely needed, and they are every bit as good as I hoped. I just wish they stayed open longer! 🥹 I love the quality of their coffee, it’s clean and balanced with a smooth, delicate flavor. Clearly still strong though, or my caffeine tolerance has just plummeted from years of taking it easy. 😅 The flavorings they use are also fantastic with a very natural taste to them. A lot of syrup / flavoring brands tend to leave a chemically, artificial aftertaste in your mouth, so I really appreciate whatever they’re using. While I enjoyed everything I tried, the Nutella Latte was definitely my favorite. Because I mean… Nutella 🤤 They also get their bagels shipped from the Bronx in NYC every other day!!! I got the Asiago bagel with mayo, horseradish, turkey and Swiss cheese, and that was SOLID. Naturally had to buy a half dozen to go (bagels, not sandwiches). The pastries and cookies that they get in are also a perfect compliment to the drinkages. 😆😍 📍 Odessa, Delaware . . . #odessade #odessadelaware #middletownde #middletowndelaware #delawarecafe #delawarecoffee #delawarecafe #coffeeflight #lavendarlatte #nutellalatte

Keep your four-leaf clovers and bring me four pints of beer instead 🍀🍺 A brewery is definitely where you want to be for St. Patrick’s Day, and @crookedhammockbrewery is doing a 3-day event this weekend at both locations in Middletown and Lewes, with live music, Irish dancing and a special “Scrappy Hour.” Three days of drinking and corned beef? Don’t gotta tell me twice! 🙌 They also have a St. Patrick’s menu available now through the weekend including the following: 🫑 Irish Nachos • fries topped with corned beef, beer braised onions, IPA beer cheese, Chipotle crema, pickled jalapenos & green onions. 🍔 Paddy O’Burger • This one was definitely my favorite. Grilled beef patty with sliced pickles, IPA beer cheese, Jameson whiskey glaze, bacon, beer braised onions & garlic mayo on a pretzel bun. ☘️ Dinner in Dublin • Corned beef brisket topped with pickled mustard seeds and served with dill creamer potatoes, garlic-scallion butter cabbage & roasted tri-color carrots. 🍺 Savagely Delicious • A triple IPA (10% ABV) brewed with Lucky Charms cereal on top of Azacca, Citra, and Lemondrop hops. See you there?! 😆 Hand models: @whimsylyn & @statzmaster 🙏 TY 📍 Middletown, Delaware (and Lewes) . . . #middletownde #middletowndelaware #lewesde #lewesdelaware #rehobothbeach #rehobothbeachde #stpattysday #stpaddysday #stpatricksday #delawarebeer #delawarebrewery #delawarebreweries #delawaredrinks #totallyforked

“Boom, b*tch” 😂 We couldn’t resist $9 Irish Car Bombs at @bigchillsurfcantina. Clearly I couldn’t hang lmao but Wendy (@whimsylyn) was a PRO 🙌 If you’re looking for something to do this weekend in Rehoboth Beach, check out @bigchillsurfcantina’s drink specials for St. Paddy’s Weekend! Do an Irish Car Bomb - can you beat Wendy? 😂☘️ Camera man: @statzmaster 🙏 📍 Rehoboth Beach, Delaware . . . #stpaddysday #delawarebeer #delawarebars #guinnessbeer #rehobothbeach #rehobothbeachde #rehobothbeachdelaware #totallyforked

Tacos are the real treasure at the end of the rainbow this St. Patty’s Day! ☘️🌮 I was invited to check out the limited time St. Patty’s special menu that will be available through March 17th at @taco_reho, which includes Corned Beef Tacos and Lucky’s Nachos which both include ancho-braised corned beef, as well as a Murphy’s Margarita with Irish Whiskey, Blue Curaçao, lime, pineapple, and a salted green rim. I’m not sure if Corned Beef Tacos would be a go-to year round for me 😂 but I definitely enjoyed it for the occasion, the did a good job pairing those flavors, and it was definitely interesting… and enjoyable! Which St. Patty’s item are you going to try?

Cheers 🥂 to the friendships that have stood the test of time, distance, and questionable life choices. Happy Galentines Day! ♥️ And I can’t think of a better cocktail for the occasion than this spicy beaut entitled “Let That Man Go” from @torbertstreet_social 😂😍 📍 Wilmington, Delaware #valentinescocktails #galentinesday #bemygalentine #tequila #spicycocktail #wilmingtonde #wilmingtondelaware

When they say “just one drink” but 6+ shots of tequila later… Really loved the vibe at @veracruzbk (so glad you recommended this spot @f_b_melo). They had a great selection of tequila and agave spirits, cocktails and frozen drinks, and an awesome bartender ( @lavirgendepena 🙏 TY). I’m pretty sure I haven’t drank that much in like a decade 😂 ( @papaspizzabk a few doors down was life once the spins started kicking in). 📍 Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY

There’s nothing like food on sharp sticks after a night of drinking! 🍢🍸 If you’re in NYC, you know St. Marks is the go-to for a late night of shenanigans, drinks and good eats. Now you can count @aroll_nyc in on the fun, a brand spankin’ new spot offering delicious skewers, drinks and great vibes. We all had a great time and I’m definitely going back for those pineapple beef and lychee pork belly skewers because 🤤🤤🤤 📍 St. Mark’s, NYC, New York . . . #stmarksplace #stmarksnyc #skewers #skeweredfood #nohonyc #eastvillagenyc #nyceats #nycfood #nycfoodie #nycfoodies #nycnightlife #newrestaurantnyc #totallyforked #openlatenyc

Whether you love Chuanchuan, Hot Pot, or stabbing things with sharp, pointy sticks — this is the spot for you! 🍢 I visited @yemen_chuanchuan in NoMad (NYC), which is a new restaurant that’s been heating things up. 🔥 I’ve never had Chuan chuan before, which is a similar concept to Hot Pot except everything is placed in skewers and cooked for you. I really loved this experience, and the great thing about individual skewers is I was able to sample things I wouldn’t normally order. Also, that pork bone broth? I’ve never had one that was quite as flavorful and rich before. I don’t know if the sell it by the quart to go but I’d buy it just to drink it straight. 😆 Shout out to our amazing server as well! 🙌 📍 NoMad, New York City . . . #chuanchuan #skeweredfood #skewers #hotpot #chinesefood #soupseason #nycwinter #winternyc #nyceats #nycfoodie #nycfoodies #nomadnyc #skewerihardlyknowher

Rebel Cove, Beware of Pirates!

Over at Rebel Cove in Middletown, Delaware in a re-fashioned railroad station hub, are some incredibly creative cheesesteaks, which according to a local patron originally from Philly I had met briefly upon my visit, are even better than the ones he’s had back home. The sound of swashbuckling and enthralling adventure soundtracks in the background from rotating pirate movies playing on the TV helped add to the atmosphere, as I listened to Captain Jack Sparrow while reading their menu with options named affectionately after pop-culture pirate movies such as Hook and PoTC. Crab cheese fries, sweet potato fries with coconut mango sauce, santa fe egg rolls, cajun coconut shrimp stew, oyster po’ boys, and dessert… don’t forget dessert! Your meal is never over unless you end with something sweet, and they have fried brownie bites with salted caramel, fried plantains with coconut mango sauce, and mango custard.

Not Your Mothers Pasta

Now that I’m living alone and working two jobs, my idea of “cooking” is a packet of tuna or microwaved leftovers – usually the latter, which is why I was excited to recieve an invitation to a local home-cooked Italian meal by Not Your Mothers Pasta. Using services such as Eat With and Air BnB Experiences, Michala and Joe have established a successful venture hosting dinner parties and cooking classes featuring Italian cuisine, which are fantastic not only for locals looking for new experiences, but for anyone visiting from out of town looking to try something different or meet new people. Not only was the food delicious, from the beet-infused pasta with a cream-based sauce, to the juicy medium-rare steaks that cut like butter, but Michala and Joe were wonderful, accomodating hosts. Michala fed us and taught us about Italian cuisine, while Joe never left our wine glasses empty and brought us blankets when we got chilly.

5 Best Coffee & Tea spots in Midtown West

I do love their mocha as well, especially with oat milk which offers a little extra viscocity, giving it a mouth-feel that goes well with the chocolate flavor. From their light, sweet and refreshing rose milk tea latte, to their lovely ube coconut milk tea latte, there is always something intriguing and wonderful. The ginger brown sugar tea can also be ordered hot, and without milk if you like, which I find incredibly soothing in the winter – and also very helpful whenever I’m sick or have a sore throat. They’re deliciously crisp on the outside, with a lovely toasted butter after-taste, soft and somewhat gooey on the inside, with a wonderful salty finish that really makes the flavor stand out.
